A-0015 : Microbiological quality of shrimp (Penaeus monodon) in relation to ...
Abstract

Culturing of shrimp, Penaeus monodon in natural waters make them more prone to contamination by pathogenic microorganisms. The prevalence of the pathogenic bacteria, Salmonella, Vibrio cholerae, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, total coliforms, faecal coliforms and Escherichia coli in water samples from water sources (Dutch canal and Mundal lake) for shrimp farming were determined. Salinity, pH and suspended solids in water were estimated. The impact of pH and salinity on the growth of pure isolat...
